There are few stars at night and the weather is gloomy.

Li Cunshen, the general of the Tang army, was fully armored and led 3,000 elite soldiers of the Tang army, each with their own titles and horses and hooves. They took advantage of the night and left the city and headed straight for the camp of Commander Li Jing of the Sui army.

"God is really helping me! The dog thieves of the Sui army fought and won consecutively, but they underestimated the enemy and were so careless!"

Li Cunshen led his army quietly all the way to the outside of the Sui army's camp. Seeing that the Sui camp's defenses were empty and there were only a few soldiers on the camp gate holding swords and guns and taking a nap, he was overjoyed: "Let me kill more people tonight." A Sui general can also comfort his colleagues who died in Bashu."

"Brothers, charge!"

Li Cunshen shouted loudly, rushed out first, pushed aside the antlers, chopped down the fence, and rushed in with a shout.

"Ding dong, it has been detected that Li Cunshen has entered the brave state, his force is +5, his base force is 98, and his current force has increased to 103."

"Kill!"

Three thousand Tang troops, under the leadership of Li Cunshen, mustered up their courage, followed Li Cunshen across the ditch and the stockade, brandishing swords and guns, and rushed into the Sui camp with shouts.

"stop!"

Li Cunshen rushed into the Sui camp first, and immediately became vigilant. The surrounding area was too quiet. Even if the Sui army was sleeping deeply, such loud shouts of killing should have woken them up. He quickly raised his flag and Yang, Tang's soldiers hurriedly stopped charging.

"not good!"

Looking around, Li Cunshen finally came to his senses, hurriedly turned his horse's head and shouted loudly: "Quick, get out of here!"

"Kill!"

Before he could finish his words, fires burst out from all directions, shouts were raised, tens of thousands of Sui troops surrounded him from all directions, and the faces of the Tang troops all turned pale.

"Quick, get out!"

Li Cunshen knew that he had been tricked, so he turned his horse and rushed out without saying a word.

"The unsuspecting Tang thief, Zhong Limei has been waiting for you for a long time under the orders of the general! If you understand, you will get off your horse and be bound!"

Li Cunshen had just taken a few dozen steps when a large army of horses rushed out from behind. The leader was none other than the famous Western Chu general Zhong Limei, who was born in chaos not long ago. He patted his horse and rushed forward. He thrust his head straight and said, "Dismount, traitor."

"Ding dong, it has been detected that Zhong Limei has entered the martial state, the force is +5, the base force is 98, and the current force has increased to 103."

Li Cunshen saw this and responded quickly. The two horses collided in mid-air, causing sparks to fly. Li Cunshen met his opponent secretly and did not dare to fight. He wanted to break out.

But Zhong Limei was not willing to let him go. The horse's pole danced so tightly that Li Cunshen didn't have the slightest chance to escape. Li Cunshen had no choice but to try his best to deal with Wu Shan. You came and I went back and forth, and before he knew it, he had been fighting for thirty rounds.

At the same time, the Sui army's brave generals Jiang Song, Xia Luqi, Li Guang, Zhou Dewei and others led their troops to kill from all sides. The weapons in their hands swayed with cold light, causing the Tang army to run away with their heads in their hands.

The Tang army tried its best to break out, but the Sui army deployed heavy troops all around. Wherever they could break out, they were stabbed to death by the Sui soldiers in the end, hacked to death with knives, and their blood flowed into rivers.

Li Cunshen roared loudly, and Ma Shan stabbed fiercely, each move faster and faster than the last, hoping to force Zhong Limei back.

Zhong Limei knew this very well, and he was not in a hurry. Wu Shan just guarded the door tightly, clinging to Li Cunshen and not giving him a chance to escape.

The two fought for more than ten rounds without realizing it. At this moment, there was a sound of horseshoe bells. It turned out to be Zhong Limei's good friend Ji Bu, seeing that Zhong Limei was still unable to defeat Li Cunshen, so he stepped forward to help: "Brother Zhong Limei, You and I work together to take down this Tang thief!"

"Ding dong, it has been detected that Ji Bu has entered the brave state, the force is +4, the base force is 97, and the current force has increased to 101."

Ji Bu clapped his horse forward and slashed with his sword. The long sword was like the wind, flashing with a cold light, carrying the roaring wind, and rushed towards Li Cunshen's neck to chop off.

Li Cunshen hurriedly raised his spear to block the attack. There was a "clang" collision sound. Zhong Limei had already raised his spear and stabbed out quickly. Li Cunshen had no time to parry, so he hurriedly dodged sideways and was able to dodge.

Zhong Limei and Ji Bu were on the left and right, stabbing rapidly with their horses, slashing with their long knives, and attacking from both sides. Li Cunshen was unable to resist. He supported his left and right, and could barely hold on for more than twenty rounds. Zhong Limei saw the flaw and slapped him off the horse with his backhand. .

Zhong Limai immediately stepped forward, stared at Li Cunshen and said: "Li Cunshen, I heard that your real surname is Fu, but you are the adopted son of Li Yuan's brother Li Keyong, not a member of the Tang Dynasty clan. If you are willing to surrender, you may not have no way of survival!"

"Eating the emperor's salary is a matter of loyalty to the emperor. If you want me to surrender, just dream!"

Li Cunshen sneered, pulled out his sword and wiped it on his neck. The sharp blade instantly cut his skin and blood spurted out. Li Cunshen's eyes widened and he died.

"Ding dong, it was detected that Li Cunshen committed suicide after being defeated by Zhong Limei. The host received 10 soul points. The current total number of soul points has increased to 418."

Li Cunshen died, and his soldiers had no willpower to resist. Seeing that the Sui army was surrounded by Sui troops with no hope of breaking out, they all threw away their weapons and fell to the ground to surrender.

Li Cunshen's night attack failed, and he lost all the rice by stealing the chicken, but instead made the morale of the Nanzheng defenders even lower.

At dawn the next day, Li Jing mobilized hundreds of thousands of his main force to attack Nanzheng City. He sent people to show Li Cunshen's head and shouted to surrender: "Listen to the defenders on the city, the Puppet Tang Dynasty is in its final years and will be destroyed soon." Being put down by the imperial court, you must open the city and surrender as soon as possible to save your lives, otherwise, this Li Cunshen will serve as a lesson to you!"

Whoosh!

An arrow was shot down from the top of the city, and the ordering soldiers fell off their horses.

Li Guangyan put away his bow and arrows, drew his sword, pointed it at the city and shouted coldly: "Don't waste any time talking, come and attack the city if you have the courage. I, Li Guangyan, will be a Tang Dynasty man by birth and a ghost of the Tang Dynasty by death!"

When Li Jing saw this, he couldn't help being furious. He waved his flag and shouted: "The three armies obey the order and attack the city!"

Following Li Jing's order, the drums in the Sui army's formation thundered. Tens of thousands of Sui troops stepped on them, causing smoke and dust to fly. They launched a fierce attack on Nanzheng City from all directions. It didn't take long for the Sui army to fill up the shallow and narrow moat.

Hundreds of chariots, chrysanthemums, and crash carts were driven by the Sui army officers and soldiers and slowly moved toward Nanzheng City. They soon crossed the filled-in moat and approached the city wall.

Arrows rained down from the top of the city, clattering down among the Sui soldiers. Even though they were protected by shields and armor, many Sui soldiers fell to the ground after being hit by arrows.

Not to be outdone, the Sui army under the city launched hundreds of trebuchets, launching stone bombs one after another onto the head of Nanzheng City.

The Sui army's crossbowmen also advanced under the cover of the sword and shield soldiers, using all their strength to shoot arrows to the top of the city. The arrows on both sides intertwined into a net, covering the sky and the sun. From time to time, people were hit by arrows above and below the city. Fall to the ground.

The soldiers of the Sui army braved the rain of arrows, carrying the ladder and pushing the chariot forward bravely. With a "click" sound, the first ladder hooked the edge of the city. A dozen Sui army infantry held their shields high and climbed up with a roar. climb.
